As promised, here is part two of the Q&A. I posted the first part of this goalie training Q&A earlier this week and although I thought it was a pretty quick Q&A, it turned out the be 12-minutes. Well, I know that most of you have other things to do – like train for hockey – and asking you to sit down and watch a 12-minute goalie training video is quite a bit to ask on a Monday. So, I split it in two and here is the second part (then read the bottom of the post for a wicked tech tip).
Part Two: Goalie Training Q&A
Check out the video below if you would like to know the answer to the following quesitons…
- Does “Peak 8″ training work and should I add it to my Rapid Response Goalie Training?
- Trying to feel more explosive on the ice – current off-ice training is not working.
- What parts of the Rapid Response Goalie Training or Ultimate Goalie Training system are not covered in the fitness program I see advertised on TV?
Even if you don’t want to know the answers to the questions above, just watch the first 15-seconds of the video to check out my new cool intro. Let me know in the comments section below or click on the “Like” button if you like it. And now I am going to give you a Jedi interwebz resource in 3….2….1….
Fiverr.com
Fiverr.com is a web-based marketplace where people post jobs that they will do for $5. So you could get someone to sing “Happy Birthday” in Cartman from South Park’s voice and send you the recording. Or, you get some pretty good design work done quickly and for only $5 – so the 15-second intro was created for $5. For those of you who checked out the Mitch Korn Interrogation the other day – the Goalie Training Pro Interrogations banner was created by someone on Fiverr.com for…you guessed it $5. Want a photo altered on photoshop – - Fiverr –need someone to do an emotional rant video for you – - Fiverr – - You can even pay someone $5 to ‘make a tough decision for you’ – - ahhhh the power of Fiverr.
Okay, so that is your questions answered plus a wicked cool tech tip – I’m out.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your input on the intro – I think it is pretty cool too. You know what, I have not looked at the videos that came with my new TRXs – I just put them up and got to work. I will take a quck look at it in the next day or two and let you know what I think. In general, I think the folks over at Fitness Anywhere do a good job of selecting safe and effective exercises for their videos. Their head exercise specialists are good guys, with a great understanding of functional anatomy.
Stay tuned.
Cheers,
Maria
Maria,
Great stuff, as usual. Cool intro. Epic soundtrack. Having solved my original dilemma, and having learned about exercises that aren’t good for goalies, my next question, which dovetails into today’s topic: I see that you use the TRX training equipment for some of the exercises–the military version of TRX comes with a training program as well. Are there things that are part of TRX training that goalies should avoid? Please continue helping to save me from myself.
Cheers,
Paul
